Repeatability and reproducibility of blower door tests ‒ five years experience of round-robin tests in the Czech Republic

Submitted by on Thu, 01/28/2021 - 11:55

The airtightness test result is typicaly compared with a limiting value (compliance check), with the results of other tests of the same object by the same technician (when controling the evolution of airtightness during construction process) or with a test result of another technician (when verifying a suspicious result). These tasks need a...

Durability and measurement uncertainty of airtightness in extremely airtight dwellings

Submitted by on Thu, 12/26/2013 - 10:59

In this paper we present a series of leakage tests on extremely airtight dwellings (ACH50 < 0.6 upon completion) in which the durability of the airtightness and the measurement uncertainty involved are assessed. In literature, repeatability and reproducibility issues have been discussed by several authors, along with influences of weather. It remains unclear, however, to what extent the available uncertainty intervals are relative or absolute.
